Resumen
EOSC Beyond overall objective is to advance Open Science and innovation in research in the context
of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) by providing new EOSC Core capabilities allowing
scientific applications to find, compose and access multiple Open Science resources and offer them
as integrated capabilities to researchers. To do so, EOSC Beyond supports a new concept of EOSC: a
federated and integrated network of Nodes operated at different levels, national, regional,
international and thematic, to serve the specific scientific missions of their stakeholders.
Further specific objectives of the project are to accelerate 'time to product' of new scientific
applications with software adapters, enable Open Science with machine composability and dynamic
deployment of shared resources, support innovation in EOSC with a testing and integration
environment, and align the EOSC Core architecture and specifications to integrate with European
dataspaces. The project extends the state of the art of the EOSC Core and adopts a co-design
methodology, including requirements elicitation, software development and validation in
collaboration with different use cases from EOSC national and regional initiatives (e-Tnfra CZ,
Czechia, NFDT, Germany, and NT4OS, South East Europe region), thematic research infrastructures
from Social Sciences and Humanities (CESSDA), Life Sciences (CNB-CSTC and Tnstruct-ERTC),
Environmental Science (ENES and LifeWatch), and Health and Food (METROFood-RT). EOSC Beyond builds
on the capacities of prospective EOSC Nodes and partners with multi-annual experience in
developing solutions for large-scale federated digital infrastructures and aligns with
the technical architecture and requirements of data spaces from different business
sectors. Ultimately, EOSC Beyond supports Open Science in nsive, and multidisciplinary
research, facilitating resource discovery, access, and reuse across scientific communities,
organisations, and countries.
